Washington [US], December 31 : Hollywood actor Bob Odenkirk, known for his hit TV series 'Better Call Saul', was seen in public in Los Angeles for the first time since he suffered a heart attack.
As per People magazine, he was wearing jeans, sneakers, and a black zip-up jacket along with a baseball cap when he was spotted in public recently. The Emmy-nominated actor was buying groceries while he was photographed.

Only days later Odenkirk confirmed that he had suffered a "small heart attack" and was "going to be ok thanks to Rosa Estrada and the doctors who knew how to fix the blockage without surgery."
He had later tweeted, "To my family and friends who have surrounded me this week. And for the outpouring of love from everyone who expressed concern and care for me. It's overwhelming. But I feel the love and it means so much."
In the month of September, Odenkirk announced his return to the sets of 'Better Call Saul'.
He again took to his Twitter handle and shared a photo of getting his makeup done, "So happy to be here and living this specific life surrounded by such good people. BTW this is makeup pro Cheri Montesanto making me not ugly for shooting."
